The story behind the product

Fiber Base is designed for thin, sensitive nails, with nylon fibres providing reinforcement and a rubber-like structure maintaining flexibility. These are two distinct formula properties: the fibres reinforce the coating, while the flexible base works with the natural nail.

The medium-thick consistency is suitable for sculpting and building the apex. Apply the base in successive layers, starting with a thin foundation and continuing with the sculpting material. The wide bottle opening makes it easy to pick up the base with a brush during the service. After shaping and curing, finish the coating with your chosen SHIELD top coat.

Tinted Fiber Base variants match shades in Ceramic Base, Classic Gel and Jelly Gel. This lets you keep your chosen shade while selecting a material suited to the nail's needs. Fiber Base stands out for its nylon fibres and flexible rubber-like structure, compared with the rigid structure of Ceramic Base.
